I'm not a big fan of coffee, but I still really enjoyed these bars. The chocolate flavor is really prominent.

These bars were a little dry, but the flavor was still good. I think I'll try adding some more butter next time.

I had some trouble getting the bars out of the pan, but they were worth the effort. They're so delicious!

These bars were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still very good. I think next time I'll use half the amount of sugar.

These bars are amazing! The coffee flavor is rich and decadent, and the shortbread crust is perfectly buttery. I will definitely be making these again.

These coffee shortbread bars were a hit! The coffee flavor was subtle but noticeable, and the bars were perfectly crumbly and buttery. I love that they're also really easy to make - I had them in the oven in under 30 minutes.
